Team Interviews

James Sorell

What’s the worst place you’ve ever gotten lost?Diocletian’s Palace in Split, Croatia – a crumbling 1,000-year-old maze of a place that issued a map that looked like blank graph paper!

If a train leaves Grand Central Station at 4:33 p.m. with 112 passengers and its top speed is 67 miles per hour, what time will it reach Banff?Banff National Park? That’s 2,525 miles, so 37 hours later it will be 5:06 a.m. Wednesday.

What’s the difference between London and New York?Mostly the spelling.

Audrey Bretillot

If a train leaves Grand Central Station at 4:33 p.m. with 112 passengers and its top speed is 67 miles per hour, what time will it reach Banff?It’s Grand Central Terminal, not Station. Do my reading glasses make me look fat?

London and New York: What do you love about each?I love London’s parks, cab drivers, and men’s tailors. And New York’s Chinatown, its bus drivers, and consignment stores.

What’s on your nightstand?Back issues of Granta and Foreign Affairs, Sandor Katz’s The Art of Fermentation, black pencils and a sketchpad, a lock-picking practice set.

If a train leaves Grand Central Station at 4:33 p.m. with 112 passengers and its top speed is 67 miles per hour, what time will it reach Banff?I don’t care as long as I’m in the bar car.
